I would like to buy a recording device, I'm new in this and I have some questions... can I start recording a clip with my DSLR and use a recorder (for example the DR-70d) to record as well? would I be able to combine the sound with the clip shot afterwards?
Thanks...

Yes. You can actually route the output from this into the camera as well. It's not as good a quality but the audio on the camera you don't have to sync up. If you want better audio then you have the ability to record onto the recorder and sync in post which is easier since the audio is nearly identical so it's easy to compare the waveforms

I have both the dr60d-mii and the dr70d. I have a broadcast ready show in presale and I used these to capture the audio on our pilot. If configured correctly and if you have quality lavs, booms, etc then you can actually get some great audio from these. You will need to conform it to broadcast standards but putting you mics into these and then into the camera for syncing makes things easy enough that my amateur crew was able to make professional audio to give to the editors that mixed it properly. I didn't get a single call about the audio causing a problem or being shitty.
However, this is not as good as a sound person who knows their gear inside and out and is carrying a $2000 kit on their shoulder. I'm just saying you can fool your investors and viewers that you spent that much given you use it all properly and have a good operator.
Sometimes this: a good lav; and mattress or some kind of insulator between the camera and whatever is behind the camera is all you may need. But always do what you have to in order to mix and balance what you get.
